Chelsea are undergoing their first major transition in years, doing so under a new ownership regime that looks to implement their own philosophy on the club. With it has come some pain and there is likely to be more on the road towards building for a return to the top of the table.
The Blues sit 10th in the Premier League, have been knocked out of both domestic competitions and are 1-0 down on aggregate in the Champions League round of 16 against Borussia Dortmund, leaving very little to be excited about for fans as the last few months are likely to drag on. Feeling the brunt of most of the current disdain for the campaign is head coach Graham Potter.
The Englishman had the task of replacing the widely popular Thomas Tuchel, who had connected with the fanbase and brought the perfect style for cup football, winning the biggest prize in club football during in his short tenure. While matching the results and charisma of his predecessor was a challenge, Potter has also had to oversee a major turnover within the squad.
